Can't wait to see if Newton and Dunn get a run in the forward line together........and even more interested to see who has the better day out.

Here's hoping the 'few showers' stay away and the temperature gets a little bit above the 11 degrees forecast so that it is not just a slog in the mud.

Go Zebs

He's a weird bloke, but you can't help but respect and admire Sauntner, despite being shopped around as a player. Glittering career, and a really different player... Would that more footballers had his outlook, and confidence to be a player with personality. I go to Sandy to watch the young dees play, and I'm always chuffed to watch him play, along with the likes of Poyas, Valenti, Gallagher, the Johnsons who I reckon go alright and Liddell. So much can be learned from these guys about attitude, even by AFL players (Byron). With the exception of some players robbong young demons of opportunities to play in certain positions (Sanutnet/Newton) it is a SENSATIONAL way to teach young guys about footy...

do us members get into this game free with our member ship or is it only at sandy that we do ?

if not then whats the price to get in ?

I think there's a reduced admission price for visiting members who show their cards. As a Melbourne member I obtained a Sandringham visitors card earlier in the season.

If you're in Ballarat and going to the game, I look forward to your report. I dare not risk the old Kingswood on any drive of a distance beyond 25kms.

Here's what the local paper is saying -

If North Ballarat is to cause the upset of the season and stop Sandringham in its tracks, it has three major assignments which must be completed successfully.

1-The Roosters must shutdown the Zebra midfield.

2-Shaune Moloney has to keep Nick Sautner to a maximum of five goals.

3-Melbourne Demons hard man Byron Pickett must be nullified.

Sandringham lost its first game for the season at North Ballarat today. Juice Newton kicked five - a performance unlikely to impress the Demon selectors to give him a chance on Queens Birthday. No excuses but Dutchy Holland, Poyas and valenti all pulled out of the selected side and the team had a number of players up from the reserves for their first games.

Why 'unlikely'? Can you elaborate.

Looks like Dunn will be back - never should have been dropped in the first place.

Sandringham... Newton 5...

why do you think they would be unimpressed?

why do you think they would be unimpressed?

He's already kicked bags of 6 and 5 goals earlier in the year (when Melbourne was struggling to kick goals) and two weeks ago he starred with a sensational (but inaccurate) display when he booted 2 goals 6 behinds. None of those perfomances impressed the selectors so why should 5 in a losing team change their minds?

Actually, I was being a trifle sarcastic but really ... you would think he needs to kick about 10 before he gets a gig at melbourne based on what's happened so far this year.

Was that Daniel Hayes in the best for the reserves?

Yes.

i know it says he kicked 5, but he wasn't in the best...

can someone who saw the match describe his game? was it influencial...

i saw the game hen he kicked 2.6 and thought he was outstanding...surely he has to crack a game. if they don't play him soon then he might lose form abit, or get injured perhaps...bloody hell play the guy while he's hot!

out of interest newton now has 21 goals for the season in 7 games averaging 3 a game, 6th on the vfl goal kicking list. sautner has booted 28 from 7 games as well, 4 a game, and is leading the goalkickers.

interesting stat i saw while checking this out, zac dawson has been named in the best in every one of the box hill hawks 7 games. is he still on the hawks list? what else do you need to do to get a run at afl level?

Great stuff to hear about Newton and Dunn, and hope they can make there way into the RED AND BLUE.

And Danny Hayes is back, which is great to hear, but i hope he doesn't waste his oppurtunity, i really wanna see this guy make it.

Put about 15kg on!!!!!

Beating 18 and 19 year old forwards in the VFL is a tad different to playing on the Rocca's and Neitz's in the AFL.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
